Thank you for the quick reply. I was discussing this with another Debian user. Both of our thought process went fairly similar: * check for manpage since command-not-found appears to be a user command (/usr/bin) * check /usr/share/doc/command-not-found/ After reading README and README.Debian, it appeared that the README was the only of the two that explained how to use the program, which was by sourcing a file that was not available. Neither of us ever thought to check, or re-source bash.bashrc. I don't really like that installation of the package makes it a global default, but that is not my choice to make. I think something should atleast go into the documentation, explaining this to other confused users. There was also discussion over the severity of bugs we were finding. I had discussed somewhat on #debian-devel, but recieved no clear answers. If /etc/bash.bashrc did not provide this functionality, would it still fail to meet the requirements of grave/RC? I am not sure I understand how it would be a wishlist. Users who would like to use the application as described on the documentation and the page linked by the README ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommandNotFoundMagic )? I wish to gain a better understanding as I attempt to become more involved in testing and maintaining software in Debian.
